It is so important that children develop correct letter formation at the very beginning. Some key points to mention are always starting on the top, and making sure to differentiate between upper and lowercase letters.

When teaching your child to write his or her name, please use the formation taught in these videos. Please have your child use a capital letter at the beginning of his or her name and lowercase letters for the rest.

To reinforce the proper letter formation and spacing, please refer to this document often. It is important to pay close attention to where the letters begin, and when it is appropriate or not to lift the pencil off the paper.
